oh yeah , i can just imagine the liberal anti-gun headlines, the evil dick cheney try's to kill a man over a quail hunt , all the people in iraq aren't enough for the evil torturing warmongers , not even killing and torturing inocent animals are enough for them. just leave it to the liberal press and news agencies , just don't be to shocked at how far they'll go
Geez, and I was gonna ask him to go deer hunting with me this fall. I better rethink that.

I'm not as good as I'm gonna get - but I'm better than I used to be. "Life without God is like an unsharpened pencil - it has no point."
The injuries were very slight. The Media needs no excuse to go after the right. Fortunanly I think any more people just consider the source and pay no attention.
biscuit that is the first time I have heard anything about the ICU. The reports I have seen/heard have it as being superficial and he was only wounded across the side of the head/neck and upper torso. The person is alert and responsive and should be home shortly.
Thankfully the man wasn't seriously hurt, but I belive this is just opportunistic journalism by both sides. I have been watching (or should I say stomaching?) CNN for the last half-hour now and they haven't even mentioned it so I seriously think it is just an over reaction, probably even moreso by the PRO-hunting camp than the antis???
Cheney was simply careless and I understand the man that was wounded was walking up from a different side of the group as he had been behind them while getting a fallen bird earlier. He didn't announce himself or make his presence known.
IMHO Cheney is 75% at fault because he was behind the trigger and fired unsafely. Mr. Whittington was 25% at fault for walking up "quietly and blind" upon the hunting party,

yes, the guy was in ICU, but the only reason was because of his age (75 yrs old). they kept him for observation. He is in satisfactory condition and will come away just fine. The media is kind of over hyping this.
The man was a lawyer, I thought Chaney should have got another shot off.
To me this could have been a very serious accident but the media has made this into a joke including Brady on TV saying no wonder Dick Chaney asked me to go hunting. He was in ICU because his age, all pellets were remove with tweezers. If the media is right he went to find a quail the dogs didn't find, I won't judge either man unless somone shows me if he was wearing orange and other factors, it was an accident and they happen, I've got a video of a DEA arms instructer shooting himself in the leg giving a leacture at a elementry school. I'd have some respect of the media reports if they knew anything about hunting other than it takes place outside.
Media Field Day??? Cheney Shoots Man....
